GRAND TRAVERSE COUNTY, MI -- An arrest of a drunken driving suspect resulted in a urine-soaked car seat and a tooth injury for a sheriff's sergeant in Grand Traverse County, authorities said.

The sergeant stopped a 38-year-old Traverse City woman for suspected drunken driving about 1:50 a.m. on Wednesday, April 2. While traveling to Munson Medical Center in Traverse City for a blood-draw, she urinated in the patrol vehicle's backseat, police said.

At the hospital, the woman, who was not identified in a press release, allegedly resisted and struggled with officers and staff. The woman thrashed while the sergeant restrained her, causing an injury to his tooth, authorities said.

She was later jailed for operating while intoxicated and resisting and obstructing police.
